Our guide was very good. The only complaint I have is that it is a long time to stand and walk on hard pavement without a rest. I finally had to find a bench in the Cathedral-Mosque to rest my back. I realize this is probably not a problem for younger people (I'm 68).

Very informative and engaging tour guide. Explained a lot of history and culture during the tour. There was a lot of information to take in. Guide offered clarification regarding historical facts (confirmed by more than one source) vs. legend (perhaps true, perhaps not, insufficient historical proof regarding the validity of the “legends”). Guide offered his personal opinion on various subjects, for example, whether he considered various legends to likely be true or not.
